Powershell unix equivilent of vi -b
Does anyone know the Powershell equivilent to the unix command 'vi -b'? I would like to be able read the line end characters of a file.
If you use the command:
get-content -encoding byte c:\file.txt
Powershell returns an array of bytes which is the content of the file. You can then examine the whole file a byte at a time.
